Victory at Sebastopol

By V.A. Stuart

Book Overview

Spring 1855: At the height of the Crimean War, the siege of the Russian city of Sebastopol continues. In a desperate attempt to cut the Russians' supply line at the Sea of Azoff, the Allies commit 15,000 troops, 5 batteries of artillery, and virtually every ship of their Black Sea fleets. Commander Phillip Hazard and HMS Huntress undertake the crucial mission of marking a new channel for the Allies' attack under the formidable shore batteries guarding the Strait of Yenikale. Forced to make some hard decisions, Hazard faces court martial afterwards.

Customer Reviews

Victory at last

More of the ongoing travails of Commander Hazard. Victory but at what price? Interesting area of history that was underreported in the history books.

Hazard's Crimean War experience concludes

Apparently this is only in print in large print format. I read it as a mass market paperback. All that matters is that it's another Hazard, which means great characters, action, and writing flow. I only know of eight volumes in the series, have read them all, and enjoyed them all. Buy them when you can find them, they're worth it.
